Car Maintenance



Tonight we learned basic car maintenance, (THANK YOU CODY SEAGER!!!). We learned things like, how to change a flat tire, including:

~where to find the jack

~where to place the jack

~how to take the lug nuts off


~where to find the spare tire

~how to put the spare tire on
~how to put the lug nuts back on (*** remember the star pattern ***)




We also learned how to check oil level, and what to do if your car overheats. After the girls went through the whole process a few of the Young Men were timed on how fast they could change the tire. They did pretty well, but and so did our girls! We are now a little safer knowing these basic skills!!!

Babysitting Expo



Tonight's activity was a babysitting expo. Moms and Dads were able to bring their little ones to play, read, eat snacks, and get to know us a little better. The purpose of this activity was so that parents could see us interact with the kids and kids could get to know us, so helping us to babysit that much better!!



We had a really great turn out and we appreciate all the support from our wonderful ward family!
